more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year. Also, not more than 50% of the value of the outstanding shares of our stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five
or fewer individuals (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code to include certain entities such as qualified pension plans) during the last half of a taxable year. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our charter provides that no person or entity may beneficially own, or be deemed to own by virtue of the applicable constructive ownership provisions of the

these series of preferred stock as separate classes. Any person who acquires or attempts to acquire beneficial or constructive ownership of shares of common stock or preferred that will or may violate the ownership limitation is required to give
written notice immediately to us and provide us with such other information as we may request in order to determine the effect of such transfer on our REIT status. </P>

deems advisable to refuse to give effect to or to prevent such transfer, including (i)&nbsp;electing to purchase any shares owned by a person or group of affiliated persons in excess of the ownership limitations or (ii)&nbsp;refusing to transfer or
issue shares to a person if an acquisition of shares by such person or group would result in such person or group exceeding these ownership limits or jeopardizing our status as a REIT. Any transfer of shares that would result in a person or group
exceeding ownership limits or in our disqualification as a REIT is deemed void as of the date of such transfer. Our board of directors has the right to waive the ownership limitations and excess share provisions of our charter relating to our common

shares on the record date may instruct the depositary on how to vote the shares of preferred stock underlying that holder&#146;s depositary shares. The depositary will vote the shares of preferred stock underlying those depositary shares according
to those instructions, and we will take reasonably necessary actions to enable the depositary to do so. If the depositary does not receive specific instructions from the record holders of such depositary shares, it will abstain from voting those
shares of preferred stock, unless otherwise discussed in the prospectus supplement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Amendment and Termination of Deposit Agreement </B></P>

bylaws, in a contested election, directors are elected by a plurality of all of the votes cast in the election of directors, and in an uncontested election, a director is elected if he or she receives more votes for his or her election than votes
against his or her election. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Removal of Directors </I></P>

director may be removed only for cause, and then only by the affirmative vote of at least&nbsp;a majority&nbsp;of the votes entitled to be cast generally in the election of directors. &#147;Cause&#148; is defined in our charter to mean the willful

<Center><DIV STYLE="width:8.5in" align="left">
 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The MGCL generally permits indemnification of any director or officer with respect to any proceedings unless
it is established that: (a)&nbsp;the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and was either (i)&nbsp;committed in bad faith or (ii)&nbsp;the result of active and deliberate dishonesty;
(b)&nbsp;the director or officer actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or (c)&nbsp;in the case of a criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was
unlawful. The indemnity may include judgments, penalties, fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses actually incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceedings. However, a corporation may not indemnify a director or officer who
shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, or who instituted a proceeding against the corporation (unless such proceeding was brought to enforce the indemnification provisions of the MGCL, or the charter, bylaws, a resolution of the
board of directors of the corporation or an agreement approved by the board of directors). In addition, a director may not be indemnified under the MGCL in respect of any proceeding charging improper personal benefit to the director, whether or not
involving action in the director&#146;s official capacity, in which the director was adjudged to be liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement does not create
a presumption that the director or officer did not meet the requisite standard of conduct required for permitted indemnification. The termination of any proceeding by conviction, or plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of an order
of probation prior to judgment, creates a rebuttable presumption that the director or officer did not meet that standard of conduct. A director or officer who has been successful on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding referred
to above shall be indemnified against any reasonable expenses incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceeding. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have also entered
into indemnity agreements with several of our officers and directors that provide that we will, subject to certain conditions, pay on behalf of the indemnified party any amount which the indemnified party is or becomes legally obligated to pay
because of any act or omission or neglect or breach of duty, including any actual or alleged error or misstatement or misleading statement, which the indemnified party commits or suffers while acting in the capacity as an officer or director. Once
an initial determination is made by the registrant that a director or officer did not act in bad faith or for personal benefit, the indemnification provisions contained in the charter, bylaws, and indemnity agreements would require us to advance any
reasonable expenses incurred by the director or officer, and to pay the costs, judgments, and penalties determined against a director or officer in a proceeding brought against them. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Insofar as the foregoing provisions permit indemnification of directors, officers or persons controlling us for liability arising under the Securities Act, we

ownership and disposition of our shares of common stock and preferred stock. Supplemental U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of the securities offered by this prospectus may be provided in
the prospectus supplement that relates to those securities. The information in this section is based on the current Code, current, temporary and proposed income tax regulations promulgated under the Code (&#147;Treasury Regulations&#148;), the
legislative history of the Code, current administrative interpretations and practices of the IRS (including its practices and policies as endorsed in private letter rulings, which are not binding on the IRS except in the case of the taxpayer to whom
a private letter ruling is addressed), and existing court decisions. Future legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations and court decisions could change current law or adversely affect existing interpretations of current law, possibly
with retroactive effect. Any change could apply retroactively. We have not obtained any rulings from the IRS concerning the tax treatment of the matters discussed below. Thus, it is possible that the IRS could challenge the statements in this
discussion and that a court could agree with the IRS. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Special rules that are not discussed below may apply to you if, for example you are a

alternative minimum taxes, estate taxes, and taxes imposed by <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> jurisdictions could have on the matters discussed in this summary. In addition, this summary assumes that security holders hold our stock
as capital assets, which generally means as property held for investment. In addition, the following summary does not address any U.S. federal income tax consequences to holders of our outstanding stock that could result if we issue any redeemable
preferred stock at a price that exceeds its redemption price by more than a de minimis amount or that otherwise provides for dividends that are economically a return of the stockholders investment (rather than a return on the stockholder&#146;s
investment), which preferred stock could be considered <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;fast-pay</FONT> stock&#148; under Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section&nbsp;7701(l) of the Code and treated under such regulations as a financing

applicable provisions of the Code and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, or Treasury Regulations, commencing with our taxable year ended December&nbsp;31, 1986. We believe we have operated as a REIT and intend to continue operating as
a REIT so long as our Board of Directors determines that REIT qualification remains in our best interest. However, we cannot assure you that we will meet the applicable requirements under U.S. federal income tax laws, which are highly technical and
complex. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In brief, a corporation that complies with the provisions in Code Sections 856 through 860 and qualifies as a REIT generally is not taxed on its
taxable income to the extent such income is currently distributed to stockholders, thereby completely or substantially eliminating the &#147;double taxation&#148; that a corporation and its stockholders generally bear together. However, as discussed
in greater detail below, we could be subject to U.S. federal income tax in some circumstances even if we qualify as a REIT and would likely suffer adverse consequences, including reduced cash available for distribution to its stockholders, if we
fail to qualify as a REIT. </P>

the law existing and in effect as of its date (and to the extent applicable, the law in effect for prior periods covered by their opinion). Our qualification and taxation as a REIT will depend on our ability to have met and to meet on a continuing
basis, through actual operating results, the asset composition, distribution levels, diversity of share ownership and various other qualification tests imposed under the Code discussed below.&nbsp;Goodwin Procter LLP&nbsp;has not reviewed and will
not review our compliance with these tests on a continuing basis. Accordingly, the opinion of our tax counsel does not guarantee our ability to qualify as or remain qualified as a REIT, and no assurance can be given that we have satisfied and will
satisfy such tests for our taxable year ended December&nbsp;31, 2016 or for any subsequent period. Also, the opinion of&nbsp;Goodwin Procter LLP&nbsp;is not binding on the IRS, or any court, and could be subject to modification or withdrawal based
on future legislative, judicial or administrative changes to U.S. federal income tax laws, any of which could be applied retroactively.&nbsp;Goodwin Procter LLP&nbsp;will have no obligation to advise us or the holders of our stock or debt of any

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To monitor its compliance with condition (7)&nbsp;above, a REIT is required to send annual letters to its stockholders requesting information regarding the
actual ownership of its shares. If we comply with the annual letters requirement and we do not know or, exercising reasonable diligence, would not have known of our failure to meet condition (7)&nbsp;above, then we will be treated as having met
condition (7)&nbsp;above. Failure to comply with such requirements could subject us to monetary penalties. If you fail or refuse to comply with the demand letters, you will be required by the Treasury Regulations to submit a statement with your tax
return disclosing your actual ownership of our shares and other information. We have complied with condition (8)&nbsp;above by making our REIT election as part of our U.S. federal income tax return for our taxable year ended December&nbsp;31, 1986.
For purposes of satisfying condition (9), we have adopted December&nbsp;31 as our year end, and we intend to comply with the applicable record-keeping requirements. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Ownership of Interests in Partnerships and Qualified REIT Subsidiaries</I>. A REIT that is a partner in a
partnership or a member in a limited liability company or other unincorporated entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, will be deemed to own its proportionate share of the assets of the partnership or limited liability
company, as the case may be, based on its interest in partnership capital, and will be deemed to be entitled to its proportionate share of the income of that entity. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The assets and gross income of a partnership of which a REIT is a partner retain the same character in the hands of the REIT. Thus, our pro rata share of the
assets and items of income of any partnership in which we own an interest is treated as our assets and items of income for purposes of Asset Tests and Gross Income Tests. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If we become a partner in any partnership that we do not control and such entity takes or expects to take actions that could jeopardize our qualification as a
REIT or require us to pay tax, we may be forced to dispose of our interest in such entity. In addition, it is possible that a partnership could take an action which could cause us to fail a Gross Income Test or Asset Test, and that we would not
become aware of such action in time to dispose of our interest in the partnership or take other corrective action on a timely basis. In that case, we could fail to qualify as a REIT unless we were entitled to relief, as described below. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may from time to time own certain assets through subsidiaries that we intend to be treated as &#147;qualified REIT subsidiaries.&#148; A corporation will
qualify as our qualified REIT subsidiary if we own 100% of the corporation&#146;s outstanding stock and do not elect with the subsidiary to treat it as a TRS, as described below. A qualified REIT subsidiary is not treated as a separate corporation,
and all assets, liabilities and items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of a qualified REIT subsidiary are treated as assets, liabilities and items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the parent REIT for purposes of the Asset
Tests and Gross Income Tests. A qualified REIT subsidiary is not subject to U.S. federal income tax, but may be subject to state or local tax, and our ownership of the stock of a qualified REIT subsidiary will not violate the restrictions on
ownership of securities, as described below under &#147;- Asset Tests.&#148; While we currently hold all of our investments through the Operating Partnership, we also may hold investments separately, through qualified REIT subsidiaries. Because a
qualified REIT subsidiary must be wholly owned by a REIT, any such subsidiary utilized by us would have to be owned by us, or another qualified REIT subsidiary, and could not be owned by the Operating Partnership unless we own 100% of the equity
interest in the Operating Partnership. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Certain other wholly-owned entities also may be treated as disregarded as separate from their owners for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, generally including any domestic unincorporated entity that would be treated as a partnership if it had more than one owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, all assets,
liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of any such disregarded entity will be treated as assets, liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of the owner of the disregarded entity. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a disregarded subsidiary or qualified REIT subsidiary ceases to be wholly owned by us (for example, if any equity interest in the subsidiary is acquired by
a person other than us or another one of our disregarded subsidiaries), the subsidiary&#146;s separate existence would no longer be disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Instead, it would have multiple owners and would be treated as
either a partnership (if not formerly a qualified REIT subsidiary) or a taxable corporation (if formerly a qualified REIT subsidiary). Such an event could, depending on the circumstances, adversely affect our ability to satisfy the Asset Tests and
Gross Income Tests, including the requirement that REITs generally may not own, directly or indirectly, more than 10% of the value or voting power of the outstanding securities of another corporation. See &#147;- Asset Tests&#148; and &#147;- Income

future. A TRS is a corporation other than a REIT in which a REIT directly or indirectly holds stock, and that has made a joint election with such REIT to be treated as a TRS. If a TRS owns more than 35% of the total voting power or value of the
outstanding securities of another corporation, such other corporation will also be treated as a TRS. Other than some activities relating to lodging and health care facilities, a TRS generally may engage in any business, including investing in assets
and engaging in activities that could not be held or conducted directly by us without jeopardizing our qualification as a REIT. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A domestic TRS is subject

shares of stock or more than 9.9% (in value or in number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of any class or series of shares of our stock, as well as in certain other circumstances. See the Section entitled &#147;Description of Capital
Stock&#151;Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer&#148; in this prospectus. Additionally, our charter contains provisions requiring each holder of our shares to disclose, upon demand, constructive or beneficial ownership of shares as deemed
necessary to comply with the requirements of the Code. Furthermore, stockholders failing or refusing to comply with our disclosure request will be required, under Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, to submit a statement containing
information regarding the beneficial ownership of our stock to the IRS at the time of filing their annual income tax returns for the year in which the request was made. </P>

Tests at the end of a later quarter solely due to changes in value of our assets. In addition, if the failure to satisfy the Asset Tests results from an acquisition during a quarter, the failure generally can be cured by disposing of <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-qualifying</FONT> assets within 30 days after the close of that quarter. We will continue to maintain adequate records of the value of our assets to ensure compliance with these tests and intend to act within 30 days

interests in mortgages on real property or on interests in real property); (2) for taxable years beginning on or after January&nbsp;1, 2016, personal property leased with real property if the rents attributable to the personal property would be
rents from real property under the income tests discussed below; (3)&nbsp;shares in other qualifying REITs; (4)&nbsp;for taxable years beginning on or after January&nbsp;1, 2016, debt instruments issued by publicly offered REITs; and (5)&nbsp;any
stock or debt instrument (not otherwise a real estate asset) attributable to the temporary investment of &#147;new capital,&#148; but only for the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-year</FONT> period beginning on the date we received the new
capital. A stock or debt instrument will qualify as being attributable to the temporary investment of new capital if the money used to purchase the stock or debt instrument is received by us in exchange for our stock (other than through a dividend
reinvestment plan) or in a public offering of debt obligations that have a maturity of at least five years. Assets that do not qualify for purposes of the 75% test are subject to the additional asset tests described below under &#147;- 25% Asset

properties in cash sources, &#147;new capital&#148; investments or other liquid investments which allow us to continue to qualify under the 75% Asset Test. Therefore, our investment in real properties should constitute &#147;real estate assets&#148;
and should allow us to meet the 75% Asset Test. A real estate mortgage loan that we own generally will be treated as a real estate asset for purposes of the 75% Asset Test if, on the date that we acquire or originate the mortgage loan, the value of
the real property securing the loan is equal to or greater than the principal amount of the loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for taxable years beginning after December&nbsp;31, 2015, a mortgage loan secured by both real property and personal
property shall be treated as a wholly qualifying real estate asset (and all interest and gain from such loan may be qualifying income for purposes of the 75% income test) if the fair market value of such personal property does not exceed 15% of the
total fair market value of all such property, even if the real property collateral value is less than the outstanding principal balance of the loan. </P>

the value of our assets as to any one issuer; or (2) 10% of the outstanding securities by vote or value of any one issuer. The 10% value test does not apply to certain &#147;straight debt&#148; and other excluded securities, as described in the
Code, including but not limited to any loan to an individual or estate, any obligation to pay rents from real property, and any security issued by a REIT. In addition, a partnership interest held by a REIT is not considered a &#147;security&#148;
for purposes of the 10% value test; instead, the REIT is treated as owning directly its proportionate share of the partnership&#146;s assets, which is based on the REIT&#146;s proportionate interest in any securities issued by the partnership
(disregarding for this purpose the general rule that a partnership interest is not a security), but excluding certain securities described in the Code. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For purposes of the 10% value test, &#147;straight debt&#148; means a written unconditional promise to pay on demand or on a specified date a sum certain in

value, of any one issuer. However, a REIT would not lose its REIT qualification for failing to satisfy these 5% or 10% asset tests in a quarter if the failure is due to the ownership of assets the total value of which does not exceed the lesser of
(1) 1% of the total value of the REIT&#146;s assets at the end of the quarter for which the measurement is done, or (2) $10&nbsp;million;<I>&nbsp;provided</I>, that in either case the REIT either disposes of the assets within six months after the
last day of the quarter in which the REIT identifies the failure (or such other time period prescribed by the Department of the Treasury, or the Treasury), or otherwise meets the requirements of those rules by the end of that period. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a REIT fails to meet any of the asset test requirements for a quarter and the failure exceeds the<I>&nbsp;de minimis</I>&nbsp;threshold described above,

services &#147;usually or customarily rendered&#148; in connection with the rental of real property and not otherwise considered &#147;rendered to the occupant.&#148;&nbsp;For these purposes, the income that a REIT is considered to receive from the
provision of &#147;impermissible tenant services&#148; will not be less than 150% of the cost of providing the service. If the amount so received is 1% or less of the total amount received by us with respect to the property, then only the income
from the impermissible services will not qualify as &#147;rents from real property.&#148; However, &#147;impermissible tenant services&#148; generally will not include services that are provided to tenants through an independent contractor from whom
we derive no revenue, or through a TRS. With respect to this rule, tenants have received and will receive some services in connection with their leases of the real properties. We believe we have structured, and intend to structure the services we
provide as necessary (such as through the use of our TRSs and/or independent contractors and/or by limiting the revenues from impermissible tenant services at certain properties to comply with the 1% rule) as needed so that providing these services
will not cause the rents received with respect to the properties to fail to qualify as rents from real property for purposes of the 75% Gross Income Test (and the 95% Gross Income Test described below) or so that the amount of any <FONT

(excluding rent based on a percentage of receipts or sales, as described above), (ii) attributable to personal property in an amount greater than 15% of the total rent received under the applicable lease, and (iii)&nbsp;from any lease with a related
party tenant does not cause us to fail the Gross Income Tests. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Amounts received as rent from a TRS are not excluded from rents from real property by
reason of the related party rules described above, if the activities of the TRS and the nature of the properties it leases meet certain requirements (generally relating to leases of less than 10% of the total leased space in a building and leases of
hotels and health care facilities). The TRSs must pay regular corporate tax rates on any taxable income they earn. Further, the rules impose a 100% excise tax on transactions between a TRS and its parent REIT or the REIT&#146;s tenants whose terms

profits of any person (excluding amounts based on a fixed percentage of receipts or sales). If a loan is secured by both real property and other property, the interest on it may nevertheless qualify under the 75% Gross Income Test if the amount of
the loan does not exceed the fair market value of the real property at the time of the loan commitment. For taxable years beginning on or after January&nbsp;1, 2016, if a loan is secured by both real property and personal property and the value of
the personal property collateral represents less than 15% of the value of the total property securing the loan, the interest on it may qualify under the 75% Gross Income Test regardless of whether the amount of the loan exceeds the fair market value

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Dividend Income</I>. Distributions from TRSs or other corporations that are not REITs or qualified REIT
subsidiaries are generally classified as dividends to the extent of the earnings and profits of the distributing corporation. Such distributions generally constitute qualifying income for purposes of the 95% Gross Income Test, but not the 75% Gross
Income Test. Any dividends received by us from a REIT will be qualifying income for purposes of both the 95% and 75% Gross Income Tests. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have
monitored and will monitor the amount of the dividend and other income from our TRSs and will take actions intended to keep this income, and any other <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-qualifying</FONT> income, within the limitations of the Gross
Income Tests. Although we intend to take these actions to prevent a violation of the Gross Income Tests, we cannot guarantee that such actions will in all cases prevent such a violation. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Foreclosure Property</I>. Foreclosure property is real property and any personal property incident to such real property (1)&nbsp;that is acquired by a
REIT as a result of the REIT having bid on the property at foreclosure or having otherwise reduced the property to ownership or possession by agreement or process of law after there was a default (or default was imminent) on a lease of the property
or a mortgage loan held by the REIT and secured by the property, (2)&nbsp;for which the related loan or lease was acquired by the REIT at a time when the REIT did not know or have reason to know that default would occur, and (3)&nbsp;for which such
REIT makes a proper election to treat the property as foreclosure property. REITs generally are subject to tax at the maximum U.S. federal corporate tax rate (currently 21%) on any net income from foreclosure property, including any gain from the
disposition of the foreclosure property, other than income that would otherwise be qualifying income for purposes of the 75% Gross Income Test. Any gain from the sale of property for which a foreclosure property election has been made will not be
subject to the 100% tax on gains from prohibited transactions described above, even if the property would otherwise constitute inventory or dealer property in the hands of the selling REIT. If we believe we will receive any income from foreclosure
property that is not qualifying income for purposes of the 75% Gross Income Test, we intend to elect to treat the related property as foreclosure property. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Satisfaction of the Gross Income Tests</I>. Our share of income from the Operating Partnership&#146;s properties primarily gives rise to rental income and
gains on sales of the properties, substantially all of which generally has qualified and will qualify under the 75% Gross Income and 95% Gross Income Tests. However, we have TRSs through which we may provide certain services, engage in activities
that would give rise to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-qualifying</FONT> income for either Gross Income Test, make sales that we believe could be subject to the 100% tax on prohibited transactions if made outside a TRS, and/or otherwise
conduct certain activities or hold certain properties. The gross income generated by our TRSs would not be included in our gross income. However, any dividends from our TRSs to us would be included in our gross income and qualify for the 95% Gross
Income Test, but not the 75% Gross Income Test. Because the activities of our TRSs are/could be substantial, the amount of such dividends also could be substantial. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If we fail to satisfy either the 75% Gross Income or 95% Gross Income Tests for any taxable year, we may retain our qualification as a REIT for such year if
we satisfy the IRS that (1)&nbsp;the failure was due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect, and (2)&nbsp;we attach to our return a schedule describing the nature and amount of each item of our gross income. If this relief provision is
available, we would remain subject to tax equal to the greater of the amount by which we failed the 75% Gross Income Test or the 95% Gross Income Test, as applicable, multiplied by a fraction meant to reflect our profitability. It is not possible,
however, to state whether in all circumstances we would be entitled to the benefit of these relief provisions. For example, if we fail to satisfy the gross income tests because nonqualifying income that we intentionally incur unexpectedly exceeds
the limits on nonqualifying income, the IRS could conclude that the failure to satisfy the tests was not due to reasonable cause. If these relief provisions are inapplicable to a particular set of circumstances involving us, we will fail to qualify
as a REIT. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Annual Distribution Requirements </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In
addition to the other tests described above, we are required to distribute dividends (other than capital gain dividends) to our stockholders each year in an amount at least equal to the excess of: (1)&nbsp;the sum of: (a) 90% of our REIT taxable
income (determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and by excluding any net capital gain); and (b) 90% of the net income (after tax) from foreclosure property; less (2)&nbsp;the sum of some types of items of <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-cash</FONT> income. Whether sufficient amounts have been distributed is based on amounts paid in the taxable year to which they relate, or in the following taxable year if we: (1)&nbsp;declared a dividend before the
due date of our tax return (including extensions); (2) distribute the dividend within the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">12-month</FONT> period following the close of the taxable year (and not later than the date of the first regular dividend
payment made after such declaration); and (3)&nbsp;file an election with our tax return. Additionally, dividends that we declare in October, November or December in a given year payable to stockholders of record in any such month will be treated as
having been paid on December 31st of that year so long as the dividends are actually paid during January of the following year. If we fail to meet the annual distribution requirements as a result of an adjustment to our U.S. federal income tax
return by the IRS, or under certain other circumstances, we may cure the failure by paying a &#147;deficiency dividend&#148; (plus penalties and interest to the IRS) within a specified period. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If we do not distribute 100% of our REIT taxable income, we will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the undistributed portion. We also will be subject
to an excise tax if we fail to currently distribute sufficient income. In order to make the &#147;required distribution&#148; with respect to a calendar year and avoid the excise tax, we must distribute the sum of (1) 85% of our REIT ordinary income
for the calendar year, (2) 95% of our REIT capital gain net income for the calendar year, and (3)&nbsp;the excess, if any, of the grossed up required distribution (as defined in the Code) for the preceding calendar year over the distributed amount
for that preceding calendar year. Any excise tax liability would be equal to 4% of the difference between the amount required to be distributed and the amount actually distributed and would not be deductible by us. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>General</I>. We currently hold and anticipate holding direct or indirect interests in one or more partnerships, including the Operating Partnership. We
operate as an Umbrella Partnership REIT, or UPREIT, which is a structure whereby we own a direct interest in the Operating Partnership, and the Operating Partnership, in turn, directly or indirectly owns our properties (generally through lower-tier
partnerships and disregarded entities, but the Operating Partnership also may hold properties through lower-tier REITs or TRSs or other taxable corporations). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following is a summary of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of our investment in the Operating Partnership if the Operating Partnership is treated
as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This discussion should also generally apply to any investment by the Operating Partnership in a lower-tier property partnership. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A partnership (other than a publicly traded partnership taxed as a corporation) is generally not subject to tax as an entity for U.S. federal income tax
purposes. Rather, partners are allocated their allocable share of the items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the partnership, and are potentially subject to tax thereon, without regard to whether the partners receive any distributions
from the partnership. We are required to take into account our allocable share of the foregoing items for purposes of the various REIT gross income and asset tests, and in the computation of our REIT taxable income and U.S. federal income tax
liability. Further, there can be no assurance that distributions from the Operating Partnership will be sufficient to pay the tax liabilities resulting from an investment in the Operating Partnership. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Generally, a domestic entity with two or more members formed as a partnership or other <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> entity under
state law will be taxed as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes unless it specifically elects otherwise or is treated as a corporation under special rules for &#147;publicly traded partnerships.&#148; Because the Operating Partnership
was formed as a partnership under state law, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Operating Partnership will be treated as a partnership if it has two or more partners and is not treated as a corporation under the publicly traded partnership
rules, or as a disregarded entity if it is treated as having one partner. As a result, if the Operating Partnership becomes wholly owned by us, it will cease to be a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and become a disregarded entity.

classified as a publicly traded partnership. However, no assurance can be given that any such partnership will at all times satisfy such safe harbor. We reserve the right to not satisfy any safe harbor. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">There is a risk that the right of a holder of Operating Partnership common units to redeem the units for cash (or common stock at our option) could cause
Operating Partnership common units to be considered readily tradable on the substantial equivalent of a secondary market, and we may not be eligible for a safe harbor at all times. If the Operating Partnership is a publicly traded partnership, it
will be taxed as a corporation unless at least 90% of its gross income has consisted and will consist of &#147;qualifying income&#148; under Section&nbsp;7704 of the Code. Qualifying income generally includes real property rents and certain other
types of passive income. We believe that the Operating Partnership has had and will continue to have sufficient qualifying income so that it would be taxed as a partnership, even if it were classified as a publicly traded partnership. The income
requirements applicable to REITs under the Code and the definition of qualifying income under the publicly traded partnership rules are very similar. Although differences exist between these two income tests, we do not believe that these differences
will cause the Operating Partnership to fail the 90% gross income test applicable to publicly traded partnerships. However, there is sparse guidance as to the proper interpretation of this 90% gross income test, and thus it is possible that
differences will arise that prevent us from satisfying the 90% gross income test. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If for any reason the Operating Partnership (or any partnership
invested in by the Operating Partnership) is taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the character of our assets and items of gross income would change, and as a result, we would most likely be unable to satisfy the applicable
REIT requirements under U.S. federal income tax laws discussed above. In addition, any change in the status of any partnership may be treated as a taxable event, in which case we could incur a tax liability without a related cash distribution.
Further, if any partnership was treated as a corporation, items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of such partnership would be subject to corporate income tax, and the partners of any such partnership would be treated as stockholders, with
distributions to such partners being treated as dividends. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Income Taxation of Partnerships and their Partners</I>. Although a partnership agreement
generally will determine the allocation of a partnership&#146;s income and losses among the partners, such allocations may be disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Code Section&nbsp;704(b) and the Treasury Regulations if the
allocations do not have &#147;substantial economic effect&#148; and are not otherwise consistent with the partners&#146; interests in the partnership. If any allocation is not recognized for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the item subject to the
allocation will be reallocated in accordance with the partners&#146; economic interests in the partnership. We believe that the allocations of taxable income and loss in the Operating Partnership agreement comply with the requirements of Code
Section&nbsp;704(b) and the Treasury Regulations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In some cases, special allocations of net profits or net losses will be required to comply with the
U.S. federal income tax principles governing partnership tax allocations. Additionally, pursuant to Code Section&nbsp;704(c), income, gain, loss and deduction attributable to property contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for units
must be allocated in a manner so that the contributing partner is charged with, or benefits from, the unrealized gain or loss attributable to the property at the time of contribution. The amount of such unrealized gain or loss is generally equal to
the difference between the fair market value and the adjusted basis of the property at the time of contribution, and such difference (as adjusted for amortization) may be referred to as a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;book-tax</FONT>
difference.&#148; These allocations are designed to eliminate <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">book-tax</FONT> differences by allocating to contributing partners lower amounts of depreciation deductions and increased taxable income and gain
attributable to the contributed property than would ordinarily be the case for economic or book purposes. With respect to any property purchased by the Operating Partnership, such property generally will have an initial tax basis equal to its fair
market value, and accordingly, Code Section&nbsp;704(c) will not apply, except as described further below in this paragraph. The application of the principles of Code Section&nbsp;704(c) in tiered partnership arrangements is not entirely clear.
Accordingly, the IRS may assert a different allocation method than the one selected by the Operating Partnership to cure any <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">book-tax</FONT> differences. In certain circumstances, we create <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">book-tax</FONT> differences by adjusting the values of properties for economic or book purposes, and generally the rules of Code Section&nbsp;704(c) would apply to such differences as well. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Some expenses incurred in the conduct of the Operating Partnership&#146;s activities may not be deducted in
the year they were paid. To the extent this occurs, the taxable income of the Operating Partnership may exceed its cash receipts for the year in which the expense is paid. As discussed above, the costs of acquiring properties must generally be
recovered through depreciation deductions over a number of years. Prepaid interest and loan fees, and prepaid management fees are other examples of expenses that may not be deducted in the year they were paid. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a partnership (including the Operating Partnership) is audited by the IRS with respect to tax returns for taxable years beginning after December&nbsp;31,
2017, unless such partnership qualifies for and affirmatively elects an alternative procedure, the partnership will be liable for the hypothetical increase in partner-level taxes (including interest and penalties) resulting from an adjustment of
partnership (or partnership-related) tax items on audit. Such hypothetical tax liability, or &#147;imputed underpayment,&#148; will be determined based on the highest rate of tax applicable to corporations or individuals, subject to certain
potential adjustments that may reduce the amount.&nbsp;Under the default rule, this imputed underpayment generally must be paid in the year of the adjustment, resulting in a potential shift of the cost of an assessment to those persons that are
partners in such partnership in the year of the assessment, and away from those who were partners in the year of the underpayment.&nbsp;The partnership audit rules create procedures to modify (or reduce) a proposed imputed underpayment if certain
conditions are satisfied, but no assurances can be provided that such procedures can, or will, be used to reduce or eliminate imputed underpayments. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under an alternative &#147;push out&#148; procedure, if elected, the partnership would issue statements to persons who were partners in the audited year
setting forth each partner&#146;s share of any adjustments. Each partner is then required to take into account any increases or decreases in taxes that would result from such adjustments, including any adjustments to subsequent years before the year
in which the statement is received resulting from the adjustment to the reviewed year, for the taxable year in which the partner receives the statement, rather than filing amended returns for the years adjusted. If any of our subsidiary partnerships
or limited liability companies (including the Operating Partnership) is able to and in fact elects the alternative push out procedure for a given adjustment, the amount of taxes for which the persons who were partners in the year audited will be
liable will be increased by any applicable penalties and a special interest charge. There can be no assurance that any such entities will be eligible to make such an election or that it will, in fact, make such an election for any given adjustment.

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Information reporting (transfer statements) on other transactions may also be required under these rules.
Generally, these reports are made for certain transactions. Transfer statements are issued between &#147;brokers&#148; and are not issued to the IRS or to you. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Stockholders should consult their tax advisors regarding the consequences of these rules. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Capital Gains and Losses.</I>&nbsp;The tax rate differential between capital gain and ordinary income for
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> taxpayers may be significant. As noted above, a taxpayer generally must hold a capital asset for more than one year for gain or loss derived from its sale or exchange to be treated as long-term
capital gain or loss. The highest marginal individual income tax rate is currently 37%. The maximum tax rate on long-term capital gains applicable to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> taxpayers is 20% for sales and exchanges of
capital assets held for more than one year, except that the maximum tax rate on long-term capital gain from the sale or exchange of &#147;section 1250 property,&#148; or depreciable real property, is 25% to the extent that such gains are
&#147;unrecaptured section 1250 gains.&#148; With respect to distributions that we designate as capital gain dividends and any retained capital gain that we are deemed to distribute, we generally may designate whether such a distribution is taxable
to our <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> stockholders as long-term capital gains or unrecaptured section 1250 gains. The IRS has the authority to prescribe, but has not yet prescribed, regulations that would apply a capital gain
tax rate of 25% (which is generally higher than the long-term capital gain tax rates for <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> taxpayers) to a portion of capital gain realized by a
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> stockholder on the sale of REIT stock that would correspond to the REIT&#146;s &#147;unrecaptured Section&nbsp;1250 gain.&#148; In addition, the characterization of income as capital gain or
ordinary income may affect the deductibility of capital losses. A <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> taxpayer may deduct capital losses not offset by capital gains against its ordinary income only up to a maximum annual amount of
$3,000. A <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> taxpayer may carry forward unused capital losses indefinitely. A corporate taxpayer must pay tax on its net capital gain at ordinary corporate rates (currently up to 21%). A corporate
taxpayer can deduct capital losses only to the extent of capital gains, with unused losses being carried back three years and forward five years. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a
U.S. stockholder recognizes a loss upon a subsequent disposition of our common stock or preferred stock in an amount that exceeds a prescribed threshold, it is possible that the provisions of certain Treasury Regulations involving &#147;reportable
transactions&#148; could apply, with a resulting requirement to separately disclose the loss generating transactions to the IRS. While these regulations are directed towards &#147;tax shelters,&#148; they are written quite broadly and apply to
transactions that would not typically be considered tax shelters. Significant penalties apply for failure to comply with these requirements. You should consult your tax advisors concerning any possible disclosure obligation with respect to the
receipt or disposition of our common stock or preferred stock, or transactions that might be undertaken directly or indirectly by us. Moreover, you should be aware that we and other participants in transactions involving us (including our advisors)
might be subject to disclosure or other requirements pursuant to these regulations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Taxation of
Tax</I><I><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">-Exempt</FONT> Stockholders</I>. U.S. <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> entities, including qualified employee pension and profit sharing trusts and individual retirement accounts,
generally are exempt from U.S. federal income taxation. However, they are subject to taxation on their unrelated business taxable income, or UBTI. U.S. <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> entities must separately compute their taxable
income and loss for each unrelated trade or business activity for purposes of determining their UBTI. UBTI generally includes (i)&nbsp;any income or gain not sufficiently related to a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT>
organization&#146;s exempt purpose, other than certain passive investment income such as dividends, interest, rents from real property and capital gains, and (ii)&nbsp;debt-financed income derived from property not sufficiently related to such
exempt purpose that is subject to &#147;acquisition indebtedness.&#148;&nbsp;Thus, our distributions to a U.S. Stockholder that is a domestic <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> entity and capital gain recognized by such an entity
with respect to our stock should not constitute UBTI unless such U.S. Stockholder borrows funds (or otherwise incurs acquisition indebtedness within the meaning of the Code) to acquire or carry its shares of stock, subject to the pension held REIT
rules discussed below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, special rules may cause part or all of the income or gain recognized with respect to our stock held by social clubs, voluntary employee benefit associations, and supplemental unemployment benefit
trusts (which are exempt from U.S. federal income taxation under Code Sections 501(c)(7), (9), or (17)), to be treated as UBTI. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Special &#147;pension
held REIT&#148; rules apply to the ownership of REIT shares by some <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> pension trusts. If, treating stock held by a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> pension trust as being held by a
single individual rather than by the trust&#146;s beneficiaries, we would be <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;closely-held&#148;</FONT> (discussed above with respect to the share ownership tests), then
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> pension trusts owning more than 10% by value of our stock may be required to treat a percentage of our dividends as UBTI. This rule applies if: (1)&nbsp;at least one
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> pension trust owns more than 25% by value of our shares, or (2)&nbsp;one or more <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> pension trusts (each owning more than 10% by value of our shares)
hold in the aggregate more than 50% by value of our shares. The percentage treated as UBTI is our gross income (less direct expenses) derived from an unrelated trade or business (determined as if we were a
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> pension trust) divided by our gross income from all sources (less direct expenses). If this percentage is less than 5%, however, none of the dividends will be treated as UBTI. </P>

only a summary of such rules is provided in this prospectus. A <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder&#148; means a nonresident alien individual or foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes that is not
otherwise subject to special treatment under the Code. This disclosure does not address stockholders that are <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> trusts or estates, and additional considerations may apply to stockholders that are <FONT

their own tax advisors and financial planners to determine the impact that U.S. federal, state and local income tax or similar laws will have on such investors as a result of an investment in our stock. The discussion below assumes we have qualified
as a REIT and will continue to qualify as a REIT. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Distributions - In General</I>. Distributions paid by us that are not attributable to gain from our
sales or exchanges of United States real property interests, or USRPIs (discussed further below), and not designated by us as capital gain dividends will be treated as dividends of ordinary income to the extent that they are made out of our current
or accumulated earnings and profits. Such dividends to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholders ordinarily will be subject to a withholding tax equal to 30% of the gross amount of the dividend unless an applicable tax treaty
reduces or eliminates that tax. Under some treaties, however, lower rates generally applicable to dividends do not apply to dividends from REITs. If income from the investment in our stock is treated as effectively connected with the <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder&#146;s conduct of a U.S. trade or business, the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the graduated rates
applicable to ordinary income, in the same manner as U.S. Stockholders are taxed with respect to such dividends, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise (and also may be subject to a 30% branch profits tax on its effectively
connected earnings and profits in the case of a stockholder that is a foreign corporation that is not entitled to the benefits of a treaty that exempts it from such tax). In general, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholders will
not be considered to be engaged in a U.S. trade or business solely as a result of their ownership of our stock. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits and not attributable to gain from our sales or exchanges of
USRPIs will not be taxable to a stockholder to the extent they do not exceed the adjusted basis of the stockholder&#146;s shares (determined separately for each share). Instead, they will reduce the adjusted basis of such shares. To the extent that
such dividends exceed the adjusted basis of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder&#146;s shares, they will be treated as gain from the sale or disposition of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT>

respect to 10% or less holders of regularly traded classes of stock, &#147;qualified shareholders&#148; and &#147;qualified foreign pension funds,&#148; for any year in which we qualify as a REIT, a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT>
Stockholder will incur tax on distributions by us that are attributable to gain from our sale or exchange of USRPIs under special provisions of the U.S. federal income tax laws known as the Foreign Investment in Real Property Act, or FIRPTA. The
term USRPIs includes interests in real property and shares in corporations at least 50% of whose real estate and business assets consist of interests in U.S. real property. Under those rules, a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT>
Stockholder is taxed on distributions by us attributable to gain from sales or exchanges of USRPIs as if the gain were effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder. A <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder thus would be taxed on such a distribution at regular tax rates applicable to U.S. Stockholders, subject to any applicable alternative minimum tax. A corporate
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder not entitled to treaty relief or exemption also may be subject to the 30% branch profits tax on such a distribution. We must withhold 21% of any distribution that is a distribution
attributable to USRPI gain. A <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder may receive a credit against its tax liability for the amount we withhold. However, FIRPTA and this 21% withholding tax will not apply to any distribution
with respect to any class of our stock that is regularly traded on an established securities market located in the United States if the recipient <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder did not own more than 10% of such class of
stock at any time during the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-year</FONT> period ending on the date of distribution.&nbsp;In the case of a capital gain dividend attributable to USRPI gain, a recipient exempt from tax under FIRPTA by reason of
not owning more than 10% of such class of stock must treat the capital gain dividend as an ordinary dividend subject to the rules discussed above. </P>

STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder provides us with appropriate documentation (1)&nbsp;evidencing that such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder is eligible for an exemption or reduced rate under an
applicable income tax treaty, generally an IRS Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">W-8BEN</FONT> or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">W-8BEN-E</FONT></FONT> (in which case we will withhold at the lower treaty rate)

is or could be designated by us as a capital gain dividend, even if not attributable to USRPI gain. Such withheld amounts of tax do not represent actual tax liabilities, but rather, represent payments in respect of those tax liabilities described in
the preceding two paragraphs. Therefore, such withheld amounts are creditable by the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder against its actual U.S. federal income tax liabilities, including those described in the preceding two
paragraphs. The <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder would be entitled to a refund of any amounts withheld in excess of such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder&#146;s actual U.S. federal income tax
liabilities, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Additional withholding regulations may require us to withhold 15% of any

fund&#148; nor any entity all of the interests of which are held by a qualified foreign pension fund is treated as a foreign person, thereby exemption such entities from tax under FIRPTA. A &#147;qualified foreign pension fund&#148; is an
organization or arrangement (i)&nbsp;created or organized in a foreign country, (ii)&nbsp;established by a foreign country (or one or more political subdivisions thereof) or one or more employers to provide retirement or pension benefits to current
or former employees (including self-employed individuals) or their designees as a result of, or in consideration for, services rendered, (iii)&nbsp;which does not have a single participant or beneficiary that has a right to more than 5% of its
assets or income, (iv)&nbsp;which is subject to government regulation and with respect to which annual information about its beneficiaries is provided, or is otherwise available, to relevant local tax authorities and (v)&nbsp;with respect to which,
under its local laws, (A)&nbsp;contributions that would otherwise be subject to tax are deductible or excluded from its gross income or taxed at a reduced rate, or (B)&nbsp;taxation of its investment income is deferred, or such income is excluded
from its gross income or taxed at a reduced rate. Under proposed Treasury Regulations on which taxpayers generally may rely, but which are subject to change, a &#147;qualified controlled entity&#148; also is not treated as a foreign person for
purposes of FIRPTA. Under such regulations, a qualified controlled entity generally includes a trust or corporation organized under the laws of a foreign country all of the interests of which are held by one or more qualified<B></B>&nbsp;foreign
pension funds either directly or indirectly through one or more qualified controlled entities or partnerships. Distributions received by qualified foreign pension funds and their <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> wholly owned
subsidiaries and qualified controlled entities will be taxed as described above at&nbsp;&#147;-<I> </I>Distributions - In General&#148;&nbsp;regardless of whether the distribution is attributable to the sale of a USRPI. Gain of a qualified foreign
pension fund or its <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> wholly owned subsidiary or qualified controlled entity from the sale or exchange of our stock as well as our capital gain dividends and distributions treated as gain from the sale
or exchange of our stock under the rules described above at<I></I>&nbsp;&#147;- Distributions - In General,&#148;&nbsp;will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless such gain is treated as effectively connected with the qualified foreign
pension fund&#146;s (or the subsidiary&#146;s or qualified controlled entity&#146;s, as applicable) conduct of a U.S. trade or business, in which case the qualified foreign pension fund (or subsidiary or qualified controlled entity) generally will
be subject to a tax at the same graduated rates applicable to U.S. Stockholders, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise, and may be subject to the 30% branch profits tax on its effectively connected earnings and profits, subject
to adjustments, in the case of a foreign corporation. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Information Reporting and Backup Withholding.</I>&nbsp;The applicable withholding agent will
report to our <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholders and the IRS the amount of dividends treated as paid during each calendar year and the amount of any tax withheld with respect to such payments. Copies of the information
returns reporting such payments and withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder resides or is established under the provisions of an
applicable income tax treaty or agreement. In addition, a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder may be subject to backup withholding with respect to dividends paid on shares of our stock, unless the <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder certifies that it is not a U.S. person or otherwise establishes an exemption. If the proceeds of a disposition of stock are paid by or through a U.S. office of a
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">broker-dealer,</FONT> the payment is generally subject to information reporting and to backup withholding unless the disposing <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder certifies as to its name,
address and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> status or otherwise establishes an exemption. Generally, U.S. information reporting and backup withholding will not apply to a payment of disposition proceeds if the payment is made
outside the U.S. through a foreign office of a foreign <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">broker-dealer,</FONT> provided, however, that if the proceeds from a disposition of stock are paid to or through a foreign office of a U.S. <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">broker-dealer</FONT> or a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> office of a foreign <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">broker-dealer</FONT> that is (1)&nbsp;a &#147;controlled foreign corporation&#148; for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, (2)&nbsp;a person 50% or more of whose gross income from all sources for a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">three-year</FONT> period was effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business, (3)&nbsp;a foreign partnership
with one or more partners who are U.S. persons and who, in the aggregate, hold more than 50% of the income or capital interest in the partnership, or (4)&nbsp;a foreign partnership engaged in the conduct of a trade or business in the U.S., then
(A)&nbsp;backup withholding will apply only if the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">broker-dealer</FONT> has actual knowledge that the owner is not a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder, and (B)&nbsp;information reporting
will apply unless the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-U.S.</FONT> Stockholder certifies its <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> status. Prospective foreign purchasers should consult their tax advisors and financial planners
concerning these rules. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Foreign Accounts and &#147;FATCA&#148; </B></P>

administrative guidance and certain intergovernmental agreements entered into thereunder, impose a 30% withholding tax on &#147;withholdable payments&#148; (as defined below) made to &#147;foreign financial institutions&#148; (as defined below) and
certain other <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> entities (whether or not such foreign financial institutions or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> entities receive the payment as a beneficial owner or intermediary)
unless (1)&nbsp;the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting, and withholding obligations or (2)&nbsp;the foreign <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-financial</FONT> entity either certifies it does not have any
substantial U.S. owners or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial U.S. owner. &#147;Withholdable payment&#148; generally includes any payment of interest, dividends, and certain other types of generally passive income if such
payment is from sources within the United States. &#147;Foreign financial institution generally means any <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-U.S.</FONT> entity that (i)&nbsp;accepts deposits in the ordinary course of a banking or similar business,
(ii)&nbsp;as a substantial portion of its business holds financial assets for the account of others, or (iii)&nbsp;is engaged or holds itself out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities,
partnership interests, commodities, or any interest in such assets. If the payee is a foreign financial institution that is not exempt under the administrative guidance or an intergovernmental agreement or not subject to special treatment under
certain intergovernmental agreements, it must enter into an agreement with the U.S. Treasury requiring, among other things, that it undertakes to identify accounts (and certain debt and equity interests in such foreign financial institutions) held
by certain U.S. persons or U.S.-owned foreign entities, annually report certain information about such accounts and withhold 30% on payments to account holders whose actions prevent them from complying with these reporting and other requirements.
Investors in jurisdictions that have entered into intergovernmental agreements may, in lieu of foregoing requirements, be required to report such information to their home jurisdiction. </P>

that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant&#146;s annual report pursuant to Section&nbsp;13(a) or Section&nbsp;15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan&#146;s annual report pursuant to Section&nbsp;15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </P>

the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to operate in compliance with the REIT Certificate or our assumptions. Differences between the actual ownership and operations of such entities and the prior, proposed and intended ownership and
operations described in the REIT Certificate or our assumptions could result in U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Company that differs materially and adversely from the treatment described herein. The Company&#146;s actual qualification as a
REIT depends on the Company meeting and having met, in its actual ownership and operations, the applicable asset composition, source of income, shareholder diversification, distribution and other requirements of the Code necessary for a corporation
to qualify as a REIT. We will not monitor actual results or verify the Company&#146;s compliance with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT, and no assurance can be given that the actual ownership and operations of the Company

need to utilize one or more of the various &#147;savings provisions&#148; under the Code and the regulations thereunder that would permit the Company to cure certain violations of the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT. Utilizing
such savings provisions could require the Company to pay significant penalty or excise taxes and/or interest charges and/or make additional distributions to shareholders that the Company otherwise would not make. </P>
